Thought you all might find these interesting...Did some scanning over the weekend...and found this somewhat interesting and somewhat disturbing. http://members.aol.com/neghvar3/SFB/jemhadar_battle_cruiser_enc2.jpg http://members.aol.com/neghvar3/SFB/jemhadar_battle_cruiser2.jpg And my simple thoughts on what the V-Cruiser might be proportion to the other two. http://members.aol.com/neghvar3/SFB/jemhadar_v_cruiser_enc.jpg
Any comments?

The encyclopedia diagram was done in a rush, so they got the proportions (and, erm, orientation ) wrong. The DS9TM diagram is more accurate.------------------ http://frankg.dgne.com/ Walter Barnett: "D-Did that thing just shatter an overpass into dust?"

Yeah, but unfortunately nobody bothered to correct the Defiant diagrams - the DS9TM Defiant is still overweight.On the other hand, the Defiant deck plans do have the accurate proportions (or something pretty close). A general comment: how about we try to stay away from "I spotted a new ship" type of debates before considering the likelyhood that a new ship was introduced without our knowing about it. Similarily, what is more likely? Three separate models of JH cruiser or a mistake by Doug Drexler? Boris

Kind of a snub, ehh Boris?Just a quick thanks for all of the times you have brought something up for debate... I do respect your opinion, but I can do without the hypocrisy. As a quick add in, the V-Cruiser is simply my interpretation of what it might be...nothing else. I do enjoy spreading happiness...

While I tried my best not to be offensive, remembering our previous discussions and the asssistance you gave me with regard to Ron Moore posts, I was a little disturbed at the prospect of a third JH battlecruiser variant under debate given the evidence. Maybe this is not what you had in mind - do you mean that the DS9TM/Encyc diagrams refer to the standard BC and the V-ship, respectively? Someone mentioned that the V-ship is an early prototype, and remember how far the EncycII goes - mid-fifth season. Also, is the third diagram your attempt at reproducing the V-ship from the side?

Personally, I like the idea of several variants. It makes the Dominion fleet seem more...fleshed out.------------------ "Fishing promotes a clean mind, healthy body and leaves no time for succumbing to Communistic or Socialistic propaganda." -- Ivar Hemmings, chairman, South Bend Bait Company

Actually...I simply rescaled the Encyclopedia version so that it's nacelles/pods were the same size as the DS9TM version, and wala the "V-cruiser." It seems to me from the screen captures we have seen of the V-cruiser, that its proportions match the side view I presented. The only thing I think might be in error is the length (and possibly shape)of the pylons that connect the outriggers (nacelles/pods) to the main hull. And I do appreciate all the answers and questions you bring to this forum! 8^) NeghVar ------------------ Spoken in Klingon, with a distinct Scottish accent: "If it's not Klingon...It's crap!"
